Login & Cache

Post by dualstow »

Lately, I’ve been having trouble on other websites that were temporarily solved when I deleted some selections from the cache, and perhaps permanently solved when I created another Profile in Safari.

Now, every time I visit this site, I have to re-login even though I click the Remember Me box.

I tried a new Browser Profile and was instantly logged in. Didn’t have to do anything. What’s going on? Is my ipad just getting old? Is there something I can do so I won’t keep being asked to log in (in the main Profile)?

I get the same thing. Often times I still need to login even when I ask the site to remember me.

I experienced the same thing using Firefox on iOS so I switched to Chrome and Safari. Seems like there was another combination of OS and browser where it happened but I can’t remember now.

Ah, ok. Maybe it’s on the site’s end. I use a few different browsers.
The second profile (in Safari) also failed today.

MacOS and Firefox - site would not let me login - gives a login error message.

iOS and Firefox - works fine.

MacOS and iOS work fine with Safari.

I wonder if the login error is a cache thing. I haven’t experienced that on this site, though I have on others.
This site just frequently forgets me. :'( It’s nice to have the password saved under a fingerprint.

Has never been an issue for me.

I'm always accessing here via Edge on a Windows 10 computer.

I don’t really have trouble on my desktop. I’m starting to think it’s my ipad that’s getting wonky.

What version of iPad are you using?

My two iPad 1's are still both going strong though they no longer can do certain things due to Apple's policy of Planned Obsolescence. But I'm fairly certain I will be able to do both email and read books on both of them forever. Plus keep score of my softball games.

Planned Obsolescence like you said. I’m on a generation 5 ipad mini, so a few years old but the 2nd most recent. The battery life is good. I’m about due for a trade-in, but I just bought a new Mac desktop (poor value! I know! O0 ) so I’m trying to space it out a bit.

I have been clearing data and restarting and switching browsers. It’s calming down a bit.
